DrVenkman PhD Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 From PWInsider: World Wrestling Entertainment's Santino Marella was arrested at 2:57 AM this morning on charges of Driving Under the Influence after being stopped at 6301 Westshore Boulevard in Tampa, Florida. Marella is currently being held on $500 bond. I'm sure we'll have more on this later today. So does WWE punish him for getting arrested or quietly ignore it and continue pushing him and Carlito?
bob_barron Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I picture Santino getting arrested and it's awesome
Matt Young Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 If this means Holly and Rhodes continue their endless title reign and Carlito and Santino job..... fuck.
DrVenkman PhD Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Posted May 1, 2008 They should put the belts on Angry Lance Cade and Singin' Trevor Murdoch.
Fartsauce Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 He better be on Raw monday because i'm there. Now I might not get to see Santino or Hardy and that sucks.
Spaceman Spiff Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 So does WWE punish him for getting arrested Pleasepleasepleaseplease. or quietly ignore it and continue pushing him and Carlito? I hope not. Although, it's kinda moot, since I'm usually watching on DVR when their segments come on, and am able to FF them into oblivion on my way to catching up to the live feed.
Boner Kawanger Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Sadly, my immediate thought was at least he didn't use a racial slur. Since WWE seems to enjoy making fun of itself getting in trouble (such as Vince calling out Congress in a promo), maybe Santino can parody the Mel Gibson meltdown a few years too late. I think Santino butchering "sugartits" has potential. (Spiff, it breaks my heart that you hate Santino.)
Spaceman Spiff Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Spiff, it breaks my heart that you hate Santino.) Santino is completely bogus.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Spiff isn't the only one. Santino is completely overrated by this lot. He just isn't that funny.
dubq Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I hated the guy when he debuted but his heel gimmick has grown on me.
Maztinho Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Spiff, it breaks my heart that you hate Santino.) Santino is completely bogus. Abdullah wasn't from Sudan, but that doesn't make him bogus. Santino is good for what he is, a comic low-midcard heel.
Spaceman Spiff Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 The "bogus" thing was a NewsRadio quote for my fellow NewsRadio aficionado Mattdotcom.
Thanks for the Fish Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 He was under the legal limit but failed two roadside sobriety tests so something must be up here. He was 0.061 and the limit is 0.080. So either he is a drinking lightweight to be that drunk while under the legal limit or there was a drug interaction(prescription or illicit??) of some sort. Or maybe he was at a Gay Bar and somebody slipped him some GHB...
The Niggardly King Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 He was probably smoking something along with some light drinking
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 ... and he was driving with Kevin Thorn at the time. There's a joke in there somewhere...
DrVenkman PhD Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Posted May 1, 2008 I like that this story made WWE.com's Industry News.
luke-o Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Mark me down for someone else that doesn't care. He's ok, but nothing special.
foleyfanforever88 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I hated the guy when he debuted but his heel gimmick has grown on me. Same here. When he was still trying to play a face, I couldn't stand him and wanted him off my TV as soon as possible. Then Umaga started spiking him every week, he became a heel, and BAM..I love the guy.
Enigma Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I think it's hilarious that when RVD & Sabu got arrested, WWE.Com was quicker than some of the rumor sites to post it. But they still haven't said anything about this.

haVoc Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I want an angle out of this. Drunken Santino Vs CM Punk.
JPopStarKami Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Or just have Punk squash Santino on the next RAW. I'd lol at that.
DerangedHermit Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 They confused that walk he does with drunkenness.
The Niggardly King Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 It didn't help that when he was asked to touch his nose, that he started doing his air trombone celebration.
